I'm assembling a new test system for reviews etc, and whilst looking at HW to complete the setup a popular store in Scandinavia had a blow out sale... and by pure impulse I went ahead and bought this
ASUS Radeon HD 5830 1GB GDDR5PCI-Express 2.0,"DirectCU", 2xDVI-I, native-HDMI
On sale for £111 - normally £212
Now... did I make a wrong purchase ?- would I have been better of with a HD5770 or HD5850 for my test/review setup ?
I just thought well if it's almost 50% it can't be that bad ?! or !?
